Just an FYI, after I posted my message above I gave dietsmokes one more look before calling it a night. What do you know, they've got them in stock. Ordered myself a kit along with my wife. Should be here by the end of the week!

Now I've gotta decide whether to keep the 510 starter kit, 2 extra batteries, PCC and PT I just ordered last Friday (and, obviously, hasn't even arrived yet, LOL) when I decided to get back into vaping! I really want to see how I like the standard 510 but I've got a hard time justifying spending that much when chances are good that, because of battery life and ease of not really worrying about the 5V PT, I'll more than likely not be using the regular 510 with much regularity now anyway!

The 510 starter kit will have a couple of attys in it, you'll need them as the eGo only comes with one. You probably won't need the PCC but the passthrough is a nice backup.

There are PCCs out there that can carry and re-charge a mega battery, you might want one of those. As for liquids, many vape around 2-3ml a day, and I'd calculate slightly more in the first week, since you will inevitably waste some.

If I were you, I'd also consider an eGo instead of a plain 510. Longer battery life is wonderful, they taste even better, and no leaky fingers any more, since anything leaking from the atty will leak into the cone.

Hi Alex. On the PCC for a mega batt-are you just talking about 510s? I haven't been able to find a PCC for a mega kr808D-1 batt and wondered if you knew of one?

I do confess I've never even looked out for a PCC for a KR8, never needed one. Can't recall ever having seen one, either. Maybe the Chinese shops have them, they do occasionally have stuff that is hard to find in more local shops.

And the 510 Mega-PCC would still be too short to charge KR8 380mAhs, which otherwise you might be able to do with an adapter.

Thanks for the quick response. I ordered from HG (no PCC for the mega kr808). Do you know of a way to find a list of Chinese shops? BTW, I feel like you've joined me on this journey I've been on. This community is lucky to have you!

Heaven Gifts is the first that comes to mind, then there is Health Cabin, and there is Eastmall. Those three also have sub-forums here.
The big China stores like Deal Extreme, Lightinthebox and Focalprice also have a few things for vaping, but mostly sets, no spares, and often slightly questionable brands.
And there are a few smaller ones, but I confess, I barely ever see those, unless somebody links there or something like that. Not all that interesting, as far as I am concerned, since they rarely have really interesting things, and getting money there and/or shipping tends to be expensive and/or tricky.

And thanks for the compliment. I just try to help out. *blush*

Im a newb, so don't let my uneducated comment alarm you, but:

The RY4 (and 555) both taste like almonds..

Just make sure and double check that..

My most immediate advice is to double down on the water intake ASAP.. trust me.. :)


I got an email back from Parker at dietsmokes at 230am eastern time...Wow...I wonder when the guy sleeps. No almonds of any kind in the RY4 and he's also throwing in a couple of the menthol carts for us to try. I'm extremely happy with that kind of customer service.
